2023 – 2024 RAM HEAVY DUTY Specs, Price, Features, Mileage and Review
For the Ram brand, the enormous 2500 and 3500 HD trucks rule the roost in terms of maximum towing capability. With a powerful 400-hp Cummins diesel inline-six engine, the Ram 3500 can tow up to 37,090 pounds thanks to its excellent 1075 pound-feet of useable torque. The Ram HD can compete with pickup trucks like the Chevrolet Silverado HD and Ford Super Duty even with its base 410-hp Hemi V-8 engine. Despite the high level of toughness of the heavy-duty Ram, driving isn’t always as straightforward as it seems. The Ram 2500 and 3500’s interiors are stylish and cozy, just like the full-size Ram 1500 half-ton truck. In the off-road-focused Power Wagon and Rebel models, which both have skid plates, all-terrain suspensions, and off-road tires that can spit mud, work and adventure come together.
What has changed for 2023?
For 2023, the Ram HD portfolio is expanded to include a new Rebel trim. A raised suspension, skid plates, and an electrically locking rear differential are among the features of the new, off-road-oriented variant. Four-wheel drive is standard, and the Rebel is only available on the 2500 model. You may order it with a gasoline or diesel engine, though. For the 2023 Ram 2500 and 3500, a few pieces of equipment have also been updated. Now available is a digital rearview mirror with side camera integration and a 12.0-inch customizable gauge cluster. The 2023 Ram HDs also get Trailer Reverse Steering control as an option, which makes a sometimes difficult driving maneuver a little bit simpler and makes life with a trailer a little easier. On the Laramie and Limited versions, a Mopar performance hood is now an option.
